BOXING presenter Kate Abdo had fans in stitches last night after telling Ryan Garcia's dad he has 'good sperm'.
The DAZN host, 39, was covering last night's WBC world title eliminator between the American prospect and Luke Campbell in Dallas.
That bout, which Garcia, 22, won by seventh-round knockout after a brutal body shot, was the main event.
But also on the undercard was younger brother Sean, 20, who took his record to 6-0 with a majority decision over Rene Marquez in their four-round lightweight bout.
Between the two fights Kate was joined by the pair's proud father Henry to discuss his brilliant offspring.
But her introduction to the beaming dad left fans stunned and amused in equal measure.
The former Sky Sports presenter said: "Sean Garcia already fought, Ryan Garcia of course the main attraction. Henry Garcia, it's great to have you here with us tonight.
"You make them pretty, you make them athletic. That’s some good sperm you got there, sir."
The compliment was met with a huge grin from Garcia Senior, who simply replied: "Thank you Kate."
And fans could not get enough of the clip, taking to Twitter in their droves to comment.
One wrote, with a reference to DAZN's subscription fee and a laughing emoji: “That’s some good sperm you’ve got there” – Kate Abdo to Ryan Garcia’s Dad. All that for just £1.99 a month."
Another added: "Kate Abdo… that's some good sperm you've got there. Bit different on DAZN."
A fan joked: "Judging by my timeline, "sperm" is about to start trending after Kate Abdo's comment to Garcia's dad on DAZN."
And another added: "Boxing review of the year 2021 articles. 'Remember when Kate Abdo talked about sperm'."

Abdo exclusively gave her prediction to Sun Sport ahead of Garcia's clash with Campbell.
And she had it pretty much bang on, revealing: "As a Brit, I’d love to be able to say Luke Campbell, but the truth is I give Ryan Garcia the edge.
"I think Ryan’s speed and timing and his confidence right now outweigh the experience factor.
"Ryan comes in off the back of those big early knock-outs.
"Luke doesn’t have the momentum of a winner, and unfortunately, I think that matters."
And she revealed the fight she wants Garcia to take soon.
The Manchester-born fan favourite added: "On paper, the biggest fight has to be Teofimo Lopez.
"He’s the unified or undisputed champ, depending on how you want to argue it. A chance at all those belts would be a huge opportunity.
"But I also think that part of what makes a big fight is when there is genuine personal beef.
"Ryan and Tank are both popular fighters and fans turn out in numbers for them.
"Gervonta insulted Ryan’s mother so now it’s personal. It may be for fewer belts, but I like that fight more."
